Imperfections

NIAS Seminar

Ellen Rutten, Professor of Literature at the University of Amsterdam and current NIAS fellow, will hold a seminar on her research into imperfections.

Which desires do people satisfy by embracing imperfections — and how can we use the present-day desire for the imperfect and the non-polished to address pressing social concerns?
